The Chart
The centre two rows of teeth are the patient's base chart. The outer rows are where work is proposed and charted before it is committed to the base chart.
Chart Options
The Chart options allow you to switch between deciduous and permanent teeth or a mixed view of both.
PD - Permanent Dentition
PTD - Permanent Treatment Dentition - i.e. where you chart treatment
DD - Deciduous Dentition
DTD - Deciduous Treatment Dentition - i.e. where you chart treatment
The Chart options allow you to use the hover chart and locked chart and condensed charting features.
Treatment History of a Tooth
Hovering the mouse pointer over a tooth will show the history of treatment charted on it, showing who charted the treatment, when it was charted and the plan it was charted on or whether it is on the base chart.
Treatments
